Quote from Putin: “People need to be engaged in something. I’m sure it should not be a ban [on alcohol – ed.], but rather an opportunity to engage in self-development, [or have] an interesting business, [or] take up some hobbies – that’s extremely important, it will absolutely help.”
Details: At the same time, at a meeting with the governor of the Magadan Oblast (Russia), Putin noted that the country achieved “good results” in the fight against alcoholism in recent years.
Previously: On 9 August, Putin ordered the acting governor of Kirov Oblast to solve the problem of alcoholism among the population in single-industry towns.
